The Asian Forum is a great place to find out more about Asian recipes, ingredients and culture.
It's also a friendly place that brings together people from all over the world.
This thread has been started as a convenient place for us to come for a chat.
Please drop in and introduce yourself. Stay for a moment or linger! It's really up to you.

Reserved for some reason -- that is currently unknown to me.

[Leggy Peggy]

Ditto!

Don't mind me, I just created those two 'empty' fields
for any housekeeping news we ever want to include.
I'm sure they'll come in handy sometime.

But now to get acquainted.
I'm one of the Asian Forum hosts -- along with Pot Scrubber and Stella Mae.
Potsie and I are the noisy ones. Stella Mae is travelling in China right now.

So who are you?

I have no idea of what this crazy woman speaks. I am quiet, shy, and demure.

And much older than that photo would imply.

Hey little buddy.



A three hour tour, for sure.

Potsie -- you stay out of the Magic Mushrooms for a while.
I'm taking the dogs for a walk.

You two are lots of fun and encouraging. So glad you are our hosts.

Potsie, I will be traveling to Fort Worth TX in October. Any good steak or barbecue restaurants in DFW area you like to recommend. I will be meeting my aunt and cousins for the first time and though I asked her about any great eats, she told me she is vegetarian. Had no idea there were vegetarians in Texas.

It does seem most unlikely!

Thanks, Rinshinomori. But you shouldn't encourage us. We're already too rowdy.

Rowdy is good. I can say that because I'm too old to cause too much trouble anymore. I think.

[Leggy Peggy]

We're glad you've come to be rowdy with us.
By the way, age has nothing to do with the amount of mayhem one can cause.

Hi......I just got the e-mail that you started this thread, but had no idea the Asian forum had so many fun people..........
Sorry, still laughing .........but what a refreshing break from so many complaints about "pasta sticking to the pot" !
I don't visit this site often, (don't know why) but I do cook an Asian dish about once a week. I'm certainly not very proficient at turning out authentic meals, but I follow the recipes and they almost always turn out great.
I have a wonderful little store near me called "The House of Rice", which has almost any ingredient I could think of needing and also the dishes and cookware and even a pair of shoes to walk out in.!! I buy my noodles and panko there......but always leave with a few things I really don't know what to do with.. They do have cooking classes every week too, and I am waiting for my life to slow down a bit so I can try my hand at learning something new.
Anyway, my name is Donna and I'm glad to meet you and will follow this thread ........I sure don't want to miss out on anything .....

Fort Worth is about an hour drive from Dallas. I don't know much about the restaurant scene in Fort Worth. Sorry, dear.

Except... there is a place called the Love Shack that has, reportedly, the best burgers in the USA.

Write me with details about your visit... Maybe I can find an excuse to drive to Fort Worth so we can grab a greasy burger and share an order of French fries.
